I only backup specific folders in my NAS and some of my service DBs. I have test restored some files from Backblaze without issue. With Backblaze you pay for pulls, so I only chose to restore some small files to test restoral. TrueNAS encrypts the data before it goes to Backblaze and then Backblaze also encrypts the data in the buckets on their end, so double encrypted. I don't have another on site copy so not really following the 3,2,1 rule. I figure RAID and an off-site backup is enough for me.

He details that his depression reached the point where his wife would not let him come home and that he lived in his parents’ basement in York.

Wow what a great wife...

Co-worker of mine visited Ethiopia for like 2-3 weeks. He said he actually ate more than he usually does while there and still lost 15lbs. Our food is a huge problem in the US. It's better for business to keep us unhealthy.

Privacy badger hides tweets in articles completely. I love it.

I agree with you, but you can't do it for everything.

I see so many people just throwing money away it's crazy.

Like you said, cooking for yourself and your family. Don't eat out. Bring packed lunches to work. My family might get fast food once or twice a month max, the rest is all from the grocery store. Eating out is stupid expensive now.

When it comes to your cars. Learn to change your own oil, battery, and air filter. Dealers and repair shops charge stupid prices for this stuff and it's easy enough to do that you can do it in 15-30 minutes yourself. Remember to properly dispose of your fluids.

Learn to fix your own tech, tech jobs pay a lot which means that you as the customer will pay a lot to get your shit fixed.

Learn how to fix simple plumbing in your house, repair drywall, install/repair simple electrical stuff. When I see people in my local area paying handymen $500 to install a ceiling fan (not the electrical part like running wires, just hanging the damn thing), I about lose it.

As with any service, everything can be "reasonably" priced. Things that people need every day have become predatory or straight price gouging. Funeral homes are one of those. If people want to have their naked bodies burned or put into the ground, they should be able to.

I constantly think of the ObiWan meme. They were supposed to be the chosen ones. They were supposed to be better with tech, not worse.
